Yak & Yeti Restaurant Description:
Disney's Animal Kingdom is the venue where food is an afterthought; until Yak & Yeti Restaurant, there was no table-service dining inside the theme park (Rainforest Café is at the entrance). And even Yak & Yeti offers walk-up windows for a quickie meal of fried rice or crispy honey chicken. But it's worth it to head inside and order a real meal, relaxing amid the elaborate Asian artifacts and antiques. For starters, the menu offers five varieties of chilled saké and nine imported beers from Thailand, India, Japan, Singapore and China. And there's the Yak Attack, an icy mango concoction with light rum and berries to take the edge off the theme park frenzy. You can make a meal of the appetizers such as seared ahi, steamed mussels in a lemon grass and Thai basil broth, pork pot stickers, wok-fried green beans, and chicken lettuce cups. You'll find the ubiquitous stir-fried beef and broccoli, tempura shrimp and lo mein, but don't miss the seared miso salmon, a nicely cooked piece of fish with baby bok choy, shiitake mushrooms and jasmine rice. That long line for nearby Expedition Everest won't seem nearly so daunting after a respite in this eatery.
